who loses?

who loses?

A Poem by Danielle Asher
"

random thoughts of a day

"

 

Make it happen

Power of a voice

Choice to take the call

To answer

Will you say yes

Or no

Gathering for action

For change

What puts an end to the disappointment?

The power of persuasion

 

When people speak do you listen?

Can you live with compromise?

Voices can clarify

If you listen

Tension builds

Defensiveness flares

Ego

What makes you decide?

 

Wordless

Nervous about the page

Excited for the future

History has not proven that I should show emotions such as these

Patterns may prevail

Power is questionable

Being in it to win it

Who loses?

Very nice. I've found that listening is more important than talking when trying to communicate. Not enough good things to say about listening. (no pun intended) LOL

This is really wonderful!
